Abstract
DURING 1941 the Rockefeller Foundation appropriated more than nine million dollars for public health, medical sciences, natural sciences, social sciences, humanities and a programme in China. The work in public health received the largest appropriation-2,450,000 dollars. Medical sciences came next with 2,120,000 dollars. The Foundation distributed 1,938,300 doses of yellow fever vaccine to the United States Government and 1,972,386 doses to Africa. Including the total sent to India, Brazil and Singapore, the Foundation gave a grand total of 4,260,680 doses of its own manufactured yellow fever vaccine. The Paris office of the Foundation closed in July 1941, and there are now no Foundation representatives on the Continent of Europe, though an office is being maintained in London. The Far Eastern office was removed from Shanghai to Manila late in 1940. Important studies are being carried out in Malta, in Trinidad and on the Burma Road.
